Can I rotate iBooks Author widgets?

Hello,
I wonder it is possible that I can rotate iBooks Author widgets? For an example, can I rotate Gallery widget?
Thanks,

I don't think so, sorry. They're locked in place to support default navigation.
What reason(s) do you have for wanting to rotate?

  • Can i download ibooks author on laptop

    Can i download ibooks author on laptop. I have both a laptop (osx 10.6.7) and an iPad and can't seem to download iBooks Author to either.

    Yes, iBooks Author will on run on a Mac laptop, not an iPad. If your Mac OSX is older than the current version of iBooks Author allows, you'll be alerted to this when you try and download the app.
    On your laptop, go to the App Store (icon is a capital A in a blue circle), search 'iBooks Author', ten install. It's also a free download.

  • HT5213 Can I use iBooks Author to create a student workbook for the iPad... or is it textbook only?

    I have created an iBook of a course for my students.  I want it to be a work book.  Can I do this in iBook Author?  Students need to be able to answer questions in the text boxes inbedded in the file.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    iBooks Author has what are called 'review' widgets, which specifically support Q & A.
    If you want a 'lab' type experience, you may be better suited with an app instead.

  • Can I use iBooks Author as a word processor and sell the text outside of iBooks?  Or does the exclusive license apply even to the text?

    I don't know if I want to sell on the iBook store, and I'd rather use iBooks Author than Text Edit or Word or Pages.  I understand that complicated interactive content is what makes iBooks Author special.  But if I create basic text content I could create anywhere, taking advantage of the versioning and iCloud storage iBooks Author provides, do I still own my own writing?

    You own your own writing but the license would prevent you from selling it externally if it produced using iBA. You could of course freely give it away, or sell it via the iBookstore. If I were you I'd be using Pages - much friendlier to use (less bugs, more mature) and if you need the extra features you can import into iBA.

  • Can I close iBooks Author while I wait for approval for account to get iTunes Producer?

    I am new to the IBooks Author and I am awaiting approval, but I want to be able to close window. If I do will I be able to get back to the same area I left off when I get the confirmation?

    IBooks Author is used to create your books and needs no "registration" or approval...so yes you can closr it.
    iTunes Producer is used to upload your book to the review team and eventually into the iBooks store.
    Unless you have either a free noks account or a psid books account, you will not need to bother too much about iTunes Producer.
    Have you applied for a free book or psid book account yet?

  • Can you download ibooks author for ipad?

    ibooks author for ipad

    No, iBooks Author is only available through the Mac App Store on Macs with OS 10.6 or later. It will not run on iOS Devices.
    But you can create the Text in Pages for iOS and copy it on your Mac in iBooks Author.

  • Where can i download ibooks author

    I can't find where to download iBooks Author. I've gone into the Apple Store via iTunes, and I've gone into the App store. Where is it?

    It is in the Mac Apps Store, which you access from the MAS app on your machine, not via a browser.  Look in Applications for the MAS app.

  • Can you use iBooks Author to create for Newsstand

    Hi.If you create a book or magazine with iBooks Author can you then put it on Newsstand as well or would it need to be in a different format? Thanks in advance.

    Yes, you'd need to not only pay the annual USD$99 fee, you'd need to either have or develop the necessary skils....it's not what I would call a trivial effort, tho, so be prepared for a steep learning curve.
    The term 'app' is a general term for iOS applications, which can take many forms. An app that specifically targets Newsstand on your device would be configured by a dev to tell iOS about itself, etc. so that it works as intended. In general terms, the work to get it into the store is the same as any other app, but again, it won't reside on the homescreen on it's own...it will be found inside Newsstand the app.

  • Can I get IBooks Authors Proof book from iPad back to computer?

    iBooks Author didn't save correctly file and when I try to open file programm asks for index.xhtml.
    When I change filename to zip, I can see all image files, but index file was disapeared. Replacing with older index file, of course, results with older version of book.
    The last full version of book is only Proof on iPad. Is it possible to get book back to iBooks Author as editable file?
    Thanks!

    Interesting idea, but I think it's mainly of interest to people who lose or forget to save their project file or it gets corrupted and they don't want to have to start all over again.   Another app with a similar issue is the (now discontinued) iWeb, and iMovie probably works the same way.  I would agree it is very unlikely Apple would change this behavior.

  • How can I share iBooks authored by me using iBook Author on 2 different iPads synced to two different computors? Both iPads have different iTunes accounts.

    I am in the process of authoring an eBook using iBook Author.  The project is a work in progress and I want to share the draft with other collegues.  We each have our own iPads synced with other computers and we have different iTunes acounts.  I attempted to preview the book on the new iPad, but the iPad did not come up in the available device window.
    Am I missing something or is there a way around this?

  • Can't "hide" iBooks author update

    I do not want to take the iBooks Author update, so I went to the purchased list and clicked the little x.
    iBooks author is no longer on my purchase list, but it is still in the updates list. I right click on it but only get "open" and "copy link."
    How do I remove it from the updates list?

    iBooks Author is a Mac app/program so you it's in the Mac App Store (so you need a Mac with OS X 10.7.2+), there isn't an iPad version of it

  • Can't Open iBook Author File - index.xml "missing"

    I've been working on a new book for about two weeks now. I've opened, closed, saved and changed it many times. I went to open the book today in iBook Author to continue adding content and I got this error message:
    "'Book Name' couldn't be opened. The required index.xml file is missing."
    I've tried re-installing iBooks, accessing the the file under a different user name, but everytime I'm getting the same error message. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I've already spent about 40 hours with this book and I'd hate to loose all my work.
    Thanks,
    Jacob

    I know this is a few weeks old, but I just had this happen and here is how I fixed it:
    Duplicate the .iba file (the iBooks Author project) to your desktop or wherever you'd like.
    Next, delete the .iba extension and make it .zip and click "Use .zip" when the dialog box pops up.
    Then, double-click your newly created ZIP file. It will extract to a folder in the same directory.
    Now, add the .iba extension to this folder. It will pop up another dialog box asking if you want to do this, click "Use .iba".
    Your file should work now.

  • A very bad error in ibooks author widget...

    hello,
    i have delivered my ibooks on ibooks store: Clil 2.0 For Maths. I added multiple choice questions using the Widget inspector, but i noted that the sentence "domanda 1 di 6" was written in italian. So i asked at this support in order to solve the problem and you said to me that if i changed the language of my OS into english it would certainly be solved. So i did and everything went well.
    Now after delivering to the ibooks store i tried to read it on my iPad with an italian version of IOS and the sentence of multiple choice question is in italian. Athe the end of the excercise it says how many question are worng or right in ITALIAN!!!
    This is a very big proble for me since it is a CLIL book so everything MUST be written in English.
    Can you solve this awful mistake?
    thank you
    Alessandro Biondi

    I see your confusion.
    > So i asked at this support in order to solve the problem
    Support told you, not anyone here. Support isn't here...these forums are user to user.
    If you have something to say to Support, you should contact them directly, same as you did originally.
    Good luck in any case.

  • Ibooks author widget icon

    Hi, I've got a widget added to my ibook and when prevewing on ipad retina, as loading, the icon appears high resolution, once the preview has fully loaded the icon reverts to being a very low quality version. I am then able to move the blurry icon by dragging it and a high res one appears underneath - very odd. Can anyone help? Tried adding an addtional icon to the widget folder with @2x after its name in addition to the initial file but this hasnt helped.

    I am also highly interested in a solution. I tried the same as the OP, but also without success. If someone knows more about this, an answer would be great. Maybe it's just a bug.

  • Can I use iBooks Author to create a collection of PDF's with a table of contents

    Hi all,
    I am wainting to collate a number of pdf files into a searchable document with a clickable table of contents.
    However I am struggling to find an appropriate option to insert a pdf as a page in a new book.
    Thanks

    You cannot use a multi page PDF in a book....although images saved as PDFs Sen to be OK.
    SAving a bok as PDF does not carry across the TOC or glossary.
    WIth post work using Acrobat or similar should let you create a linked TOC.    Have you tried MS Word?
